After fifteen years of writing as a hobby, my friends urged me to pursue my long-time dream of becoming a published author. I decided to use the first children's book I wrote. "Patty And The Little Pony That Could", held very special place in my heart therefore, I found it fitting to be the first. Afraid of failure, I almost gave up on my dream.  There were times that the feeling of unworthiness almost paralysed me from moving forward. But then I gave myself a swift kick in the hind parts and declared "The time is now!" I am very excited that I finally made the leap of faith and I am so happy you all made it with me!  I wish you all the best of luck in your adventures of imagination. The picture you see is my beloved Arana. I was very blessed to have her in my life. She passed away this Spring. True harmony, is what I felt every time I was in her presence. She is the driving force of the fantasy novel I am currently working on. Thank you for your time, and may you always live the life of your dreams!                    Marion
